(Have your production number or the last 7 of your VIN ready for the automated system.)

Thanks for the number. I was just told that my X7 is scheduled for completion last week of January.
Decided to call the genius for the heck of it. Seeing everyone else getting their X7 made me want to confirm mine will be in end of January. From my 11/23 build order.

😕 I was told that it is scheduled to START production 1/27. No timeline to completion.

I seen someone else make the same mistake. January five and week five of January are not interchangeable 😂

Well, I just looked on the website at myBMW and nearly fell off my chair:

'Today's the day: your BMW has entered the production queue.'

It also shows my VIN.

So this will give me a slim chance again of picking up my vehicle as planned on 02/15 - the day my Audi-lease expires. A SOP in the final week of this month would probably have been too late so I'm quite happy now.

Called Genius and they say scheduled completion would be 1st week of February. Wow, this will be a photo-finish....

Man I remember watching this so carefully. They told me it would be two months, but for some reason I still checked it like 5 times a day haha.

Anybody know what "At the Port" means? Does it mean my wife's car is now on a train to Oxnard VPC?

The reason why I got so excited was the fact that I did not expect to see this change on myBMW today. I was under the impression that the website was always behind and since I just called Genius two days ago, it was basically impossible that something changed on the website. What surprised me was that the phone-status of the automated system when I called Genius today was still stating 'scheduled for production, no confirmed production date'. Maybe the website is not as bad as we think?

And then, of course, my lease-end. It really wouldn't matter to me if I would have to wait two weeks longer BUT due to the fact that my current vehicle has to be turned in on a specific date (which I even took two days off from work two months ago for THE perfect switch), I was not looking forward to missing that day, potentially needing a rental, taking another day off AND driving to the dealer again to take delivery.

Of course, you never know what might happen in the couple of weeks ahead but based on what I'm seeing on here, production and delivery to a location not too far away from SC should not take longer than a month.

I'd say they sold it to somebody in Europe...

Seriously, if you are further away from the plant, it probably means it is about to take a longer journey.

Thought hard about the 22" wheels but in PA didn't want to deal with the summer tires in the winter and the hassle of swapping/storing wheels or tires.
Mine moved through all the assembly dots yesterday and is now awaiting carrier assignment. Hotline said 1/18 completion so seems to be on track.

Called the automated Genius system today, got an estimated completion date (ECD) of 02/01/2020. Guess that keeps me on track for my 2/15-delivery.

Did your dot move? I'm still on the third one. Hopefully we'll still crash into each other at the end of the line 🥴

Just checked and I'm also still on the third dot.

Give Genius a call - I wouldn't be surprised if the automated system has an ECD for you as well.

Mine skipped a few dots at some point this past weekend, and is now on "At the Dealership." I assume that means it's at the Performance Center, since I'm taking delivery there next week.

This is too funny - now we even have the same ECD. It doesn't get any closer than that...

Hi Guys, I have received my VIN last week and VIN decoder shows the Prod.Date was 1.11.2019. Does anyone has ideas, the Prod.Date is the day that my car entered into the production line or left? If it is the date that my car entered the line, when I can expect it been loaded on ship?(I'm from Australia)

You guys crack me up with your "impatience"..... Worse than a 5 yr old in the days leading up to Christmas (but I guess I will be the same when the time comes).... But seriously, for the benefit of others, I found the link below in one of the other forums that is a very detailed and good walk-thru of the BMW ordering process..

https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1181156

Edit: For the Mods, I recommend you consider putting this link in the first post of the "X7 Order & Pricing Guide" thread sticky so others will have a better opportunity to see it and not post a similar question to this thread in a new thread.

Hmm, if it was 2019, you should have it by now...

I went here

https://www.mdecoder.com/

and entered the last 7 digits of my VIN. My production date is 1/18/2020 and there is no way this is the completion date. However, it's would be pretty spot on in regards to the production start.
